Just named “Master-Planned Community of the Year” by the Building Industry Association of Southern California, Beacon Park is the second of the Great Park Neighborhoods. Offering an award-winning living experience unlike any other in Southern California, who wouldn’t want to become one of the first families to call Beacon Park your new neighborhood, where friendships, stories and discoveries are bound to be made.

Beacon Park embodies the sense of neighborhood and community which made the City of Irvine the only Southern California city listed in CNN’s Money Magazine “Top 50 Best Places to Live.” Praised for its strong economy and vibrant community, the City of Irvine is also home to the Orange County Great Park. As the only neighborhood in Orange County adjacent to the Orange County Great Park, Beacon Park residents enjoy direct access to 1,300 acres home to gardens, weekly farmers markets, and an arts complex.

Beacon Park is now selling an eclectic assortment of homes, ranging from condos to single-family residences priced from the low $600,000s to the high $1,000,000s. New home collections are offered from ten homebuilders, D.R. Horton, K. Hovnanian Homes, Lennar, Pulte Homes, Richmond American Homes, Ryland Homes, Shea Homes, Standard Pacific Homes, Taylor Morrison and Warmington Residential. With square footage from approximately 1,400 to over 4,600, and homes spanning from single story to three stories, Beacon Park has plenty of living styles to choose from, ranging from 2 to 6 bedroom designs, some with optional guest suites, dual master bedrooms, and lock-off suites.

Beacon Park also features miles of walkable and bikeable streets, and a large outdoor sports court. Additional neighborhood amenities include a pool and spa, bocce court, the Meeting House and Patio with outdoor kitchen, children’s play areas, and an expansive lawn. Also ready for exploration is The Lookout, a unique and elaborate tree house inviting guests to rest in the shade and enjoy a beautiful view overlooking the neighborhood park and Orange County Great Park.

In addition, Beacon Park guests will benefit from new neighborhood schools, providing convenient access to the award-winning education offered by the Irvine Unified School District. Opening in the 2016-2017 academic year is K-8 Beacon Park School and Portola High School, which will open to an incoming freshman class.
